Future Architectures Fishbowl

Greg Young convened an interesting fishbowl about moving architectures into the future. A number of “-ilities” are brought up in the course of this varied and good discussion.

Watching this I wonder if there is an architectural future or if it’s the case that we’re only in the ever-extending now. Messaging systems are a very old concept. Domain models and object systems are old concepts. Maybe the synthesis of these concepts are new ideas. Maybe it just takes a load of experience and knowledge…

What can we do to make our architectures more flexible?

I went with a higher resolution this time. It was a pain in the @$$ but downloads should be higher quality and full screen seems to be a better experience. Next up: part (only got the first 1/3, it’s good though) of John Lam’s IronRuby chat!
